Haruko Craft Ramen & Umi Tea — Restaurant in Town of Tonawanda

A cozy place with KTV, Boba Tea, and delicious Ramen Noodle. The staff and owners are very friendly, and speak English and Mandarin. The food and drink are satisfying, with plenty of Ramen options to choose from, and plenty of customizations for the Tea.

There are a few KTV rooms available, so this place is a nice spot to hang out with friends to sing, eat, and drink on the weekends during the evening. I didn't use the KTV as I dined alone, but there were some groups of people singing while I was dining in, and they seemed to be having plenty of fun. At the front of the restaurant, there is also a music setup which looks to be for KTV as well. It was cycling through a playlist of music videos from all over Asia to provide music for atmosphere - For example, some KPOP from the famous group Girls Generation (SNSD) like 'Gee', and popular hit songs like 'APT' are the ones I remember hearing.

As a side note, I love all of the Dragonball decor! Grew up watching Dragonball Z, so that makes this place feel even more welcoming to a person who...

I called to place an order for pick up. I was astonished by how kind the person taking my order was. She helped me with my order, repeated my order, recommended things and was the kindest person ever.

When I went to pick up the order the place was so cute inside.

Coming home, I was ecstatic about how cute the bag, bowls and cups were. Amazing presentation.

Now....the food, hands down, best ramen in Buffalo. It was very tasty and a perfect portion, not too much, not too little. Lots of umami and savory flavors. Chicken was very tender. A big gripe I have with some ramen places is that they're too greasy and just have a big pool of oil on the top, this ramen did not have that, which was very nice.

There would be only one thing I would change to improve this place and that would be more toppings included in the ramen. Besides that, absolutely perfect.

Will highly recommend to...

This place was absolutely adorable, I loved the interior design! They had a snack aisle, karaoke room, and card games on the side. Ordering food was really simple too with the kiosks and the employees were all very helpful and accommodating. The NOODLES WERE ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS, you can’t find that type of quality for ramen in Buffalo and I’m from the city so that’s saying a LOT! It was so authentic, I loved the toppings, egg was heavenly, and the noodle texture was just right. I got the spicy miso soup ramen with the chasu, the meat melted in my mouth, I’m not kidding, it was that good. I think I saw god. They also had a BOGO boba, the brown sugar was AMAZING! My friends and I did karaoke, they had a HUGE selection, it was so much fun! I’m definitely...
